Networking :: Relay UDP Broadcast Using Netcat/Socat?
May 7, 2010
Here is my problems :I have two networks :1. LAN (10.1.x.x subnet 255.255.0.0), and2. my internet public (IP 202.xx.xxx.xxxx subnet 255.255.255.240)I have an application in my LAN PC (10.1.2.240) which broadcast udp packet to its client. The client in my LAN can receive the udp packet, no problem.My question is how netcat/socat can RELAY the udp broadcast packet to one of my IP public address so the message can be received by other client from internet ?

trying to create something that will periodically send messages to a serial device using socat, take the response from the device and format it, then take the formated data and send it out UDP to a specific IP/Port.I tried to do something along the lines ofsocat <readline> <serial device> | parse script/program | socat -u <readline> <UDP:IP:Port> but didn't have any success.socat READLINE,history=$HOME/.cmd_history /dev/ttyS1,raw,echo=0,crnl | format.sh | socat -u READLINE,history=$HOME/.cmd_history UDP:IP:Port

I am trying to redirect connection to port 8980 to execute a telnet command to a local machine
by issuing the following command :
In Server 1 :
socat TCP-LISTEN:8980,fork EXEC:/myscript,reuseaddr
My script contains
#!/bin/bash
telnet 192.168.20.12 //local Server 2
I am sending Binary data from the client to Server 2 via Server 1. So it happens that I have some characters in Hex translated to special characters in ASCII like open brackets or Commas etc.. and that closed the socket between the two machines.

Friends i have an idea to broadcast few local TV channels to the world via internet.But friends i can't directly broadcast from my country because of bandwidth.friends is there a way to do this through a remote server server? i just need to input my stream to a remote server and then broadcast it from the server.I can stream channels to the server from my country through a 10mbbs connection.

I'm wondering if I can use netcat to listen to a UDP port and display ALL incoming packets, no matter where they're from. If I just do 'nc -u -l 1234' then netcat will listen for incoming packets and connect() to the source address of the first one it sees (I can see this with strace). Is there any (standard) way to stop the connect() call? I can make a hack to block connect() with a function of my own, but that'd be ugly

I connected two machines, I have their given of the addresses ip in a static way and not with DHCP. I gave to the machine server the address: 192.168.0.1, and in the machine client the address 192.168.0.2.

I've tried to use netcat in the past and assumed it was my stupidity that was preventing it from working... but this is getting ridiculous. I'll execute nc -l 3333 on a server at 192.168.0.105 (after opening it on the firewall of course) then I run nc 192.168.0.105 3333 on my laptop (from 192.168.0.101). and nothing happens... i start typing and nothing comes up on the terminal.
I run nc -z 192.168.0.105 80 which should ideally do a port scan of port 80 on that server (of which I'm running a web server that clearly works) but it doesnt even give me any feedback. Nothing happens. Now when I use the verbose flag i see that I am indeed connecting to the specified port on the server successfully (so the port scan one is a success but only with the verbose flag... which shouldnt be the case I believe). But still once I have the server listening and the laptop connected... I type in both windows and nothing happens...

i have 3 servers in 2 dcs as follows; server 1 (dc1 - dmz) --- server 2 (dc1 - internal) --- server 3 (dc2 - internal) Now I have an application in server1 that have to connect to port 44000 in server 3 but dc refuse to open connection saying they do not open connections between dmz and dc2 (i have no say over this).
However I can connect to virtually any port from server1 <-> server2 and also server2 <-> server3. Is it possible to do something like;
server1 <-> server2 <-> server3:44000 using nc to get the app work.

I made a simple proxy using netcat and it works great, the idea is to make the server and client communicate through two named pipes, file1, file2.
$ mknod file1 p
$ mknod file2 p
$ nc -l -p 12345 0<file1 1>file2 &
$ nc 192.168.2.118 80 1>file1 0<file2 &
The problem Im facing is that I cant seem to intercept the data going between the client and the server. I want to be able to have the data coming to the server in a variable, manipulate it and send it to the client, and the other way, have the data coming to the client in a variable, manipulate it and send it to the server.
Im running on an embedded device where tee, awk and many other commands are absent. how can I redirect the data to a variable, manipulate it and pass it to the other side, that is the question.

all I get is the broadcast address can be used to send packets of information to all computers on a network simultaneously. Can that be used during MPI programming or anything of the such? What is the day to day use of the broadcast address?

This is not a linux specific question more of a general network issue with the hope that someone may have already done this under linux.My problem:I have a red hat linux machine transmitting IP multicast packets onto an ethernet gigabit network (cisco switch).Wireshark (running on a different red hat linux box confirms packets on network.

I have a Dell Vostro 1400 with a BCM4311 Broadcom wireless card that I just reinstalled with 11.04 from 10.04. I have the drives installed and it seams to be working when i run the 'Additional Drives', but I can't get the wireless adapter broadcasting. I followed the instructions given in the knowledge base on installing Broadcom Wireless, to see if I could get it running and that is where I saw the difference between the example and my computer when writing the 'sudo lshw -C network' command. In the example it said it was broadcasting under configuration (just like my wired networks below) and in mine it does not (see below for copy past).
I can't find a tickbox in the systemtray to enable the wirless networking that I had before the update to 11.04 (the 'Enable Networking' tickbox is still there and the wired network works fine - that is how I got online to do this post). I have the hardware switch turned on and I have been in the BIOS and made sure that the Wireless is enabled.Anyone who knows what could be wrong? Where could I go from here?Quote:
morgan@morgan-Vostro-1400:~$ sudo lshw -C network

Link 1 = my network [url]
My network:
Subnet 1
Subnet 2
When someone creates a network loop (a cat 5 cable is plugged into two ports on a switch), the 2 subnet get flooded and become very slow.
How can I prevent subnet 1 from getting flood if someone create a loop on subnet 2.
- eth2 go offline automatically until the network loop is canceled.

I'm using F15 with two nics, each on different subnets 192.168.1.0/25 and 192.168.1.128/25. My issue is that on boot my 192.168.1.2/25 interface sets a broadcast address of 192.168.1.255 which is incorrect I believe. Its broadcast should be 192.168.1.127. I've tried setting the broadcast param in ifcfg-p3p1 file "BROADCAST=192.168.1.127" with no benefit.I can change this after boot of course, but that removes my default gateway for some reason.

I'm looking for a solution to broadcast messages on the network. All systems are Linux / Ubuntu.
It would be used in case the server has to be rebooted. It saves me a walk to every office in the building.

So I just changed my network card settings recently, and I'm now getting no response when I ping the broadcast address for them... the cards are all connected through a switch with IP addresses 192.168.0.x, broadcast 192.168.0.255... ifconfig on all of them shows UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST, but nobody responds to a broadcast packet. Any thoughts?
EDIT: Pinging each machine individually works fine.

When setting up an alias for eth0, the interface works as expected for normal traffic, but does not receive broadcast traffic.
Host 1's setup:
Code:
Pinging host 1's normal interface from host 2 works as expected:
Code:
Pinging host 1's alias interface from host 2 works as expected:
Code:
Broadcast pinging from host 2 only gets a reply from host 1's real interface (as well as some other uninteresting devices on the network):
Code:
I have confirmed by listening on both interfaces using netcat, and broadcasting using netcat, and again only the real interface receives data.
Is this by design, or is it possible to get interface aliases to receive broadcast traffic?

socat - exec:'bash -li',pty,stderr,ctty -> bash: no job control in this shell
What options should I use to get fully fledged shell as I get with ssh/sshd? I want to be able to connect the shell to everything socat can handle (SOCKS 5, UDP, OpenSSL), but also to have a nice shell which correctly interprets all keys, various Ctrl+C/Ctrl+Z, tab completion, up/down keys (with remote history).
- Found "setsid" socat option. It fixes "no job control". Now trying to fix Ctrl+D.
- socat file:`tty`,raw,echo=0 exec:'bash -li', pty, stderr, setsid, sigint, sane. Not it handles Ctrl+D/Ctrl+Z/Ctrl+C well, I can start Vim inside it, remote history is OK.

I am working on uClinux/almost same as Linux. I am new to socket programming. I have two micro controllers running on same code. Simple run with arguments mean send merged string.

I am on a 172.16.x.x network with about 60 Windows XP home and Vista home clients in a peer-to-peer workgroup that uses DHCP to assign addresses. About half the traffic on my LAN is netbios broadcast. I do not want to do a WINS server because I do not want to have to manually change the registry on every machine. This is only for local name resolution and I do not have any web servers or e-mail servers. I do not have access to a Windows server to use as a DNS server. I am on Debian and using BIND but am open to other suggestions.
